Subsidised by the Institute of Physics and co-sponsored by the Armourers and Brasiers Company, these are great value courses located in pleasant surroundings.

 

The lecture component of the programme is devised to update participants on innovations in physics, both pure and applied, and in curriculum matters. "Hands-on" workshops afford teachers opportunities to try new equipment, develop new IT skills, learn new experimental techniques, try out novel investigations and engage with alternative teaching and learning strategies.
